It&#8217;s evidence-based, not assumption-based. Northouse (2013) Stated, \u201ctransformational leadership is a process that changes and transforms people\u201d (p.185). Also, it\u2019s a process that often incorporates charismatic and visionary leadership. Greenleaf (1970) proposed, \u201cServant leaders have the natural feeling that ones want to serve, to serve first\u201d (as cited in Northhouse, 2013, p.220).<\/p>\n<p>Spears (2002) identified ten characteristics of servant leaders, listening and understanding is a strategy that SL uses to communicate with followers, and Northhouse (2013) suggested, transformational leadership and servant leadership as a process that occurs between followers and leaders (as cited in Northhouse, 2013, p. 221).<br \/>\nIn the transformational leadership theory, Bass (1985) noted that \u201cincreases followers awareness of problems and encourages followers to view old and familiar issues from a new perspective\u201d (as cited in Washington, Sutton, &amp; Sauser, 2014).<\/p>\n<p>Northhouse (2013) acknowledged, \u201cOne of the transformational leadership behavior, is to stimulate followers to be creative and innovative and to challenge their own believes and values. So, it supports followers to try a new approach and develop an innovative way of dealing with organizational issues\u201d (p.193). On the other hand, servant leaders help followers grow and succeed through mentoring and providing support, Therefore, empowering the followers and make them\u00a0own their decision and be self- sufficient.<br \/>\nLeaders need to understand and adapt to the needs and motives of followers, Which explained their concern about how the leaders able to inspire followers to accomplish great things. It seems they assess follower\u2019s motives and satisfy their needs, thus, requires having evidence-based decision-making strategy (Northhouse, 2013). Servant leadership is a &#8221; transformational approach to create a more caring and just society&#8221; (Beck, 2014, p.307))<\/p>\n<p>Schaubroeck, Lam, and Peng (2011) argued that trust in the leader is critical to linking leader behaviors and team performance and that transformational leadership and servant leadership represent general tendencies of leaders to engage in behaviors that inspire their followers\u2019 trust. Washington, Sutton, and Sauser (2014) noted, servant leadership theory shares much in common with other\u00a0modern theories of leadership, especially transformational leadership theory.<\/p>\n<p>Coetzer, Bussin, and Geldenhuys (2017) insured \u201cOn an individual level servant leadership positively influenced work engagement, organizational citizenship behavior, creativity and innovation, organizational commitment, trust, self-efficacy, job satisfaction, person-job fit or person-organizational fit, leader-member exchange, and work-life balance.\u201d Hanse, Harlin, Jarebrant, Ulin, and Winkel, (2016) concluded, Servant leaders want to develop a sustainable organization and bring out the best among followers rather than their own self-interest. Coetzer, Bussin, and Geldenhuys ( 2017) stated, \u201cServant leadership proposes a more meaningful way of leadership to ensure\u00a0sustainable results for individuals, organizations, and societies\u201d(p.1).<\/p>\n<p>Conceptual-based concerned with emotions, values, ethics, standards, and long-term goals. Decision makers cannot assume that followers will be committed to a decision without being part of the process. Evidence-based decision -making helps TSL\u00a0make well-informed decisions by having the best available evidence and managed outcome.<\/p>\n<p>The transformational servant leader can articulate a compelling vision and galvanize collective action, communicate messages in meaningful ways, and operate in an innovative, inclusive, intellectually stimulating manner. Such actions change cultures and\u00a0have the potential to lead to the development of contexts conducive to organizational change. Compiling vision and ability to conceptualize a higher vision, is a role of transformational servant leaders.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reference<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Coetzer, M.
